134 Webb Road, Bonshaw

Activity & Leisure Centre Ballarat

We provide a program that allows participants to achieve their goals, a safe space where everyone feels welcomed and included.

Purpose built ยท Bonshaw

A centre built for good days

Our Activity & Leisure Centre at Webb Road was designed and built by the West End family in 2022, made just for our day program and the people who fill it. Inside there's a movie room for lazy afternoons, a quiet room when the day gets big, and plenty of space for games and getting creative. Step outside and you'll find courts for sports, a 1000m² garden with every plant lovingly put in by our own team, and a sensory garden with its own camp kitchen, perfect for cooking up a feed in the fresh air.

Run by Lauren and her team, it's a safe, welcoming space in Ballarat where everyone is encouraged, supported and included. Every activity is open to every participant, no exceptions, and the timetable keeps growing with every suggestion, so if there's something you'd love to do, just say the word.

From the camp kitchen to the big kitchen, healthy eating, favourite recipes and plenty of taste testing. Participants plan, prep, cook and share the results together.

Music and dance every week at our Morning Melodies trip, a singalong, a dance floor and a great morning out with friends. Karaoke and line dancing back at the centre keep the music going.

Creativity

Art Program

Painting, drawing, craft and creative projects, a space to make something you're proud of, at your own pace, with plenty of encouragement along the way.

Quiet time

Library & Reading

We visit the local library together and love encouraging participants to read and learn, with our quiet room, books, word searches and a comfy chair back at the Centre for anyone who'd rather have a calm moment than a busy one.

Skills For Life

Healthy eating, active living, creativity and time outdoors. Eggs fresh from the chicken coop, veggies straight out of the patch, cooked up and shared by all, every program builds real skills participants carry home.
